Scissor Sisters To Support Elton John
Currently selling records by the warehouse full, the Scissor Sisters have confirmed that they will be jetting into the UK ahead of their Glastonbury Festival performance for two very special shows with Sir Elton John.
Sir Elton has specifically requested the Sisters' presence for two shows at Bristol City Football Club (June 13) and at Hop Farm Country Park, Kent (20).
After catching the Sisters at an aftershow party gig, the flamboyant legend purchased 50 copies of their album for all his friends and personally requested that they appear as special guests on his upcoming tour. Even more unusual is the fact that Elton doesn't normally take a support band on the road with him.
The band will re-release their debut single 'Laura' on June 7 from their album 'Scissor Sisters' which is out now.
The band's full summer dates are as follows:
- Homelands, Winchester (May 29)
- Bristol City FC w/ Elton John (June 13)
- Hop Farm Country Park w/ Elton John (20)
- Glastonbury Festival (26)
- Oxegen Festival, Dublin (July 10)
- T In The Park, Kinross (11)
- V2004 Chelmsford (August 21)
- V2004 Stafford (22)
